Perfect to use in so many places!
Measures 19” tall. Lightbulb is not included. Light bulb capacity is 40 watts max or 10 amp LED so not for room illumination but fine for reading, highlighting an area, or extra light at the desk. Colors: black metal base, black cord, both inside and exterior of lampshade is white. USB - As for charging a phone, the USB port took the same amount of time as if I had my phone plugged into the charging square and an extension cord. My phone was charged overnight with no problems. The port works when the lamp is turned off. Love this! Décor - this lamp is like a chameleon. With its simple style and not obvious design, the lamps simply blends into any décor. At 19” tall, the lamp itself is tall enough to make a statement yet slim enough to not take over the entire nightstand, table, or counter. I really love the convenience of the power button located on the base of the lamp. No need to lean out of bed, reach under the lamp to feel for the switch or the chain to turn it off. Just move the toggle-type switch at the base. The size is perfect for lighting the kitchen counter, a vanity table, an entry table. The base allows for plenty of space on the nightstand or table. It is tall enough for the light to shine on whatever while sitting in an adjacent chair. You can sit in bed and read and the light hits perfectly at book level.

Great item with a major packaging flaw
Would love this except for a packaging flaw that ruins the item for me. The base of the lamp comes with a sticker about the USB outlet (love the charging port) however, removing the sticker left residue in most places and removed the gold finish in other places. I really needed this lamp this week but I'm going to return it. If a sticker is needed about the USB port please use a different adhesive or a window cling type of sticky to attach. Seems wasteful to ruin a perfectly good lamp because of a sticker. I can't recommend this item with this current issue.

    Never Order These Lamps For Delivery!
    I ordered two of these lamps at the same time. They were delivered by two different people hours apart. Neither delivery driver bothered to knock or ring the doorbell. Neither lamp had any box or other protective packaging. One of the lamps was smashed. Walmart refused to send a replacement. I at least got a refund on that one. Never, ever order these lamps for delivery.

    What out for delivery options!!
    I wanted these lamps because of the charging port. The lamps came quickly but were not delivered by a company, just some guy in a car. He just sat the lamps on my porch, not in a box. The lamp shade was smashed beyond repair and the lamp itself was rusty. Guess they had been stored in his barn?

    Wrong Lamp Shade Color
    The color of the lamp shade in the photo and in the description is white. The lampshade I received was a tannish brown, so I had to return the lamp at my inconvenient.

    Lamp shade crushed in shipping
    I just received the lamp and believe it will work fine for my needs. However, I wish I could give a 0 star rating for the packaging of the item by WalMart. It arrived to me with the shade crushed - I'm assuming this happened in shipping. I've had issues with WalMart shipping of late with items in the packages being crushed. I order online due to the fact that I live an hour from the nearest WalMart. I'm really disappointed in the packaging.

    Simple and Minimalistic Lamp!
    If you are into simple and minimalistic decor, this is the perfect lamp for you! I ordered two and placed one on each nightstand. I removed all stickers, to make the lamps look more expensive and installed smart bulbs for different moods. Simple, inexpensive, and great lamps!

    Not what I expected
    I wanted a lamp dim enough to see at night. This lamp is still a bit bright. I think a reading lamp works best in my situation. I am upset that it arrived scratched.

    Great option!
    Bought for my granddaughters room when she comes to visit. She loves the USB phone charger, no need for wall plugin unit, a little slow charging but she plugs in at bedtime.

    We purchased 20 lamps. They were shipped laying down in a box with a few protective air bubbles, which most of them didn't have air in them. All 20 lamp shades were destroyed. Highly recommend not purchasing these lamps, if you plan on having them shipped. Pick them up at the store if you plan on purchasing them! Descent lamp for the price, but replacement lamp shades cost almost the same price as the entire lamp.

    Mangled shipping box and lampshade. Thanks FedEx.
    I ordered this lamp for my daughter's room. It arrived today via FedEx. The lamp itself is apparently fine, however the lampshade is mangled, and the box was almost completely destroyed thanks to mishandling on the part of FedEx. If you decide to purchase this lamp, don't have it shipped, instead pick it up in store.

    Perfect size, love the USB port
    I ordered 2 of these lamps for the nightstands in our master bedroom, and received them today. They are the perfect size and give off great light. The simple design works with many styles. I really like having the on/off switch on the base, instead of having to reach up into the light from bed. My main reason for purchasing these is the USB port. Less cord mess and convenient charging! Other lamps I found with this option were expensive. I couldn't pass these up at a little over $16 each! I read reviews before purchasing, and saw a lot of people mentioned the shade showing the bulb at the top. The shade is on upside-down, in that case. Just turn it over. :) So far, im extremely happy with my purchase and have no issues. The lamp boxes did arrive opened, so i was concerned there may be damage, but there was none. I highly recommend this lamp!

    Perfect desk lamp
    Cute and totally functional. The size and height of this lamp is perfect for a desk. I purchased two. My 14 yr old has one on his desk but doesn't use the USB. I have one on my desk and I use the usb to power my mini USB fan while I work. I don't recommend using the usb port to charge a phone as it blinks and flashes and doesn't charge fast enough. Overall I love this lamp and think it's a great value for what you get. Also, the stickers came off without any snags on both of my lamps.

    Terrible Packing
    The lamps work. They came with bent shades due to the way they were packed and shipped. Please see attached photos.

    Perfect design, size, and amount of lighting
    Measures 19” tall. Lightbulb is not included. The box says the light bulb capacity is 40 watts max. Colors: black metal base, black cord, both inside and exterior of lampshade is white. USB - As for charging a phone, the USB port took the same amount of time as if I had my phone plugged into the charging square. My phone was charged overnight with no problems. The USB port works when the lamp is turned off. Décor - To me, with its style and design, the lamp simply blends into any décor. At 19” tall, the lamp itself is tall enough to make a light the space and slim enough to not take over the entire nightstand, table, or counter. I really like the convenience of the power button located on the base of the lamp. Just press the power toggle-type switch at the base. The size is perfect for lighting a nightstand, kitchen counter, vanity table, and / or an entry table. The base allows for plenty of space on the nightstand or table. It is tall enough for the light to shine on whatever while sitting in an adjacent chair. I can sit in bed and read and the light shines at book level.

    Table Top Lamp
    This is a simple elegant portable lamp that will blend in most rooms. At the moment, it's placed on a bedside table and is quite fitting with the rest of the decor of our bedroom. The shade is somewhat fragile and survived the shipping as there was no deformity as it was appropriately packaged. The shade just slides down on to the base of the lightbulb socket without any twisting, as it snugs into place. You'll have to have a spare bulb or purchase it separately as it is not included. I had a spare bulb so didn't have to go out and shop for one. I'm thinking of purchasing a smart bulb for additional convenience especially ones that connect with our personal voice assistant. The on-off rocker switch on the base has a nice firmness to it, obviously being new. The USB port is a nice touch to connect personal devices for charging. There is a sticker along the side of the base that was easy to peel off, and doesn't leave any residue. Overall, it's a great relatively inexpensive table top lamp, that will take very little space for some extra lighting. We'll be ordering more as I highly recommend it.
